***2017 NFL Draft thread Day TWO ***

[AzorAhai]

Man if they can find a way to get Desmond King, they are going to be set at DB for a long time with youth all over.

Another CB, Lewis from Michigan *gags, again* (Go Bucks!)

Thought it might be Tankersley, but it's the same position so I'm good with it. Obviously, our scouts thought Lewis was a better fit.

 

[DFWJC]

Great pick if his head is right.
For example
Jourdan Lewis was Todd McShay's 8th best player entering today.
In his top 250 in pre-draft he had him at 35

Kiper had him as the 18th best left today (or about 50)

Yes, it is a steal

I like the pick, good player, liked tank more but this kid is a baller

 

[Bigdog]

Love the pick. McShay loves the pick. Cut off Mel and told him to stop it, he was the best pick on the board 30-40 picks ago. If our 2nd pick doesn't work at CB, he could move to safety.

 

[MrPeanutbutter]

why do this?

I honestly feel bad hitting the "Report" button so many times, but this is ridiculous

 

[crashintonickdm]

Should be noted that both Mel and mcshay are baffoons.

 

[Daillest88]

Do any.deyails on his case. Think the cowboys know more?

 

[DCowboyz]

I like this draft so far. We got a DE and 2 CB's. We needed this. And solid players too.

 

[MichaelWinicki]

Still laughing at people saying Charleton was a 'bad pick'.

We got 3 very good defenders. The front office is going defense, just like they should.

And both corners chosen today were good value.

Solid draft so far.

 

[kumizi]

why do this?

I only did after several others had posted it.

 

[HardHittin'Witten]

Pearson said Goodell encouraged him to talk trash.

 

[TheDude]

2CBs in 1st 3 picks , draft for need...

@Risen Star may have alcohol poisoning after this

He cut him straight off...that was crazy

Half of our fan base thought Zeke was a "bad pick" but none of them own it now.

I'm fine with our picks so far. No guys with major injuries ("redshirts"), and no 2nd round TE. Focusing on defense, as we should.

Great player
First rnd talent
If you can keep him out of jail he can be a stud

8 – Jourdan Lewis – 5’10/186 – Michigan: 79

Summary: Three year starter that, after missing the first 3 games with an injury, capped his career with a 1st Team All Conference nomination, winner of the Big 10 Conference Defensive Back of the Year Award, and Jim Thorpe Award finalist performance. Lewis had an ultra-productive career and seems to be ready for an NFL role week 1. His abilities are best suited to defend the slot because of his seamless transitions out of his breaks and ability to cut off routes. If he gets matched up against bigger receivers, he can be pushed around easily. However his performance inside could be top tier.

*It took 8 guys to find a corner under 6 feet and below a 1st round grade. Lewis, who just missed a 1st round grade in my book, is more than a slot corner. He can play outside as well. I think he is one of the top corners in the class when it comes to playing the ball and maintaining his body control downfield. That can certainly make up for some of the size deficiencies. Lewis is a little under the radar but I think he is almost a sure thing to factor in the league at a high level.

Upside Pro Comparison: Brent Grimes – TB

I know. It appeared he was pissed at what Mel was saying.

 

[Killerinstinct]

Lewis is my favorite pick so far.

Could easily argue both were BPA at the time they were picked.
